Question proposed, That the clause stand part of the Bill.

The clause provides quite simply that, if any measures in this Bill did not apply to the parliamentary estate, they would do so by virtue of the explicit mention in this clause. It simply removes loopholes, and I commend it to the Committee.

I would never want us to be accused of the damning political adage that it is one rule for them and one rule for everyone else, so of course I support the parliamentary estate being subject to the same regulations.

Question put and agreed to.

Clause 75 accordingly ordered to stand part of the Bill.
